    Much of Android is open source. That’s why AOSP, LineageOS, Graphene, etc can exist. Google Play Services is not part of the kernel.

    Windows existed long before Linux. Or do you think MS develops Android?

    Open source base just means you can’t charge money for it.

    That is very inaccurate. GPL3 specifically says all derivative work is also open source.
